*If you prefer, we can replace the perfume-making workshop with a winemaking class under the Louvre Museum

Afternoon: Eiffel Tower
• The Eiffel Tower is one of the most recognized and visited landmarks in the world – and initially was only intended to last for 20 years! Built in two years for the World’s Fair in 1889, it actually was an object of great discord at the time. What “saved” the Eiffel Tower from deconstruction ? Scientific experiments that Gustave Eiffel encouraged such as radio transmissions and telecommunications.
• Your private, local guide will regale you with the history of the Tower’s construction, its unique architecture, as well as numerous anecdotes about Gustave Eiffel – an entrepreneur specializing in metal structures (who even had his office installed at the very top of the Tower!).
• Our tickets will allow us to jump the line and will give us elevator access to the summit of the Eiffel Tower (subject to meteorological conditions).
• Finish the day with an exceptional dinner and amazing views at the famous Jules Verne restaurant on the second level of the Tower – en tête-à-tête !
• Night in your elegant boutique hotel in the heart of Paris
From a small hunting lodge constructed by King Louis the 13th, to the spectacular palace and gardens during the reign of his son, Louis the 14th, the Palace at Versailles is truly a feast for the senses.
